Kai's verdictA-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.A-tier. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026.A genuinely interesting evolution of video search that could make YouTube feel more like a knowledge engine, but it's still early-stage, US-locked, and paywalled behind Premium — watch this space rather than rerouting your workflow around it yet. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.
